Hey all, Ive been somewhat of a lurker here, but now Im officially a member of you crazy bastids.
Let me start by saying Im a to e30s, but not to wrenching. This is my second bmw, just sold my E34 M5 and "downgraded" to this car. Ive always wanted a 325es, but could never find one clean enough for me. I didnt want a mint one, but didnt want a POS either. Anyways, this one was the right price and only needed a steering rack so before even signing the title over to me, the PO and I tackled that and got it out of the way. Car has some interesting mods, most of which will be removed, some will stay. Ill stop here and post some pics, then I will reveal my somewhat simple plans.
ahhh, new parts!

Cindy had been sitting for a while so I gave her a bath before snapping any pics. She also had some ricer wheels on and I told the PO i would prefer the bottlecaps, so thats what I will be rocking for now. She may get some new shoes really soon. We'll see.... Im not a wheelwhore so dont expect BBS' or anything thats worth more than the car. Not my style....

First off, I was disappointed that the ES spoiler was gone, but I may have one soon. I need to get something on there. Her face is beat right now, so I will be hitting up the local junkyards to find all the trim pieces that need to be replaced and I will probably get some kind of spoiler on there until I get my hands on the proper front spoiler. I HATE the depo lights, but they do have real HIDs so thats a positive. Expect a factory projector beam of some sort, hopefully smileys if I can find a good deal. Thats pretty much it for now. Going to shadowline the car. Motor wise, a chip and exhaust will be good until I get all the 325i parts I will need. Im not in a hurry, as I have a few other projects that need to get done first. This is my driver, just gotta make it a little better than it is now and I will be good. Im already enjoying the sh!t out of this car.
So thats it for now...
